Explain the mathematical relationship between molar concentration (in mol/dm³), the number of moles of solute, and the solution volume.
Calculate molar concentration using the formula:
concentration (mol/dm3)=volume (dm3)number of moles of solute
Describe chemical neutralisation as the reaction of an acid with an alkali to yield a salt and water, explicitly referencing common laboratory acids (hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid) and common alkalis (hydroxides of sodium, potassium, and calcium).
Recall that aqueous solutions of acids release hydrogen ions, whereas aqueous solutions of alkalis contain hydroxide ions.
Recognize that all aqueous neutralisation reactions can be generally simplified and represented as hydrogen ions reacting with hydroxide ions to form water.
Describe and explain the rigorous procedural steps for performing a titration to ensure the collection of precise, accurate, valid, and repeatable empirical results.
Evaluate the quality, reliability, and precision of experimental data obtained from titration procedures.
